Selecting the appropriate therapeutic mattress depends on several factors, including:
Patient's Condition: Consider the type and severity of the patient's condition. For example, patients with high risk of pressure ulcers may benefit more from an air-fluidized bed. Weight Capacity: Ensure the mattress can support the patient's weight to prevent sagging and loss of efficacy. Durability: Choose a mattress that is durable and easy to clean, especially in high-use environments. Adjustability: Some conditions may require frequent adjustments, so consider mattresses that offer this feature.
